Sheet Metal Stamping

Sheet Metal Stamping Fabrication in Shenzhen, China

— Our ability to provide both Tool Stamping and Laser Cutting fabrication shapes flexibility and substantial savings on some sheet metal fabrication parts. Tool stamping is more cost effective than laser cutting for certain materials and provides additional capabilities of forming, counter sinking, extruded flanges, embossing, etc. Whereas laser cutting is a precise and efficient cutting process that can provide a smooth sheared edge and functional bearing surfaces for high quality mechanical slide components with excellent flatness and is equally suitable for prototyping before high volume production.

What’s more, Laser cutting is a very fast way to prototype new jobs with no upfront tooling cost. Metal stamping requires the creation of a custom die that can only be used for the production of a particular part. The creation of the die creates a much higher upfront cost, however once created, the die can be used repeatedly to make a large number of parts. The equipment needed for machine stamping takes much longer to be ready than the equipment for a laser cutting process. However, the cycle time needed to produce each part once the system has been set up can take less time overall.

Computer numerically controlled (CNC) punching is another sheet metal manufacturing process that is carried out by CNC punch presses. These machines can be either a single head and tool rail design or multi-tool turret design. The CNC punching machine is basically programmed to move a sheet of metal in an x and y direction so as to accurately position the sheet under the machine‘s punching ram ready to punch a hole or form. The processing range for most CNC punch presses is 0.5mm to 6.0mm thick in a range of materials including steel, zinc, galvanized, stainless steel and aluminum. The choice of hole punched can be as simple as a circle or rectangle right through to special shapes to suit a specific cut out design.

By using a combination of single hits and overlapping geometries, complex sheet metal component shapes can be produced. The machine may also punch 3D forms such as dimples, screw thread plunges, and electrical knockouts etc on either side of the sheet, which are often employed in sheet metal enclosure design. Some modern machines may have the ability to tap threads, fold small tabs, punch sheared edges without any tool witness marks making the machine very productive within the component cycle time. The instruction to drive the machine to create the desired component geometry is known as the CNC program.

For Sheet metal fabrication, Cutting and Forming are the main two methods to shape the goal specification, while Assembly is a third option that can be done with or without the use of conventional fasteners. The assembling of multiple sheet metal elements using fasteners like bolts, screws and rivets is a crucial step in the manufacturing process, even if it isn’t always seen as an independent fabrication process. There are other sheet metal fabrication techniques, such as tapping and punching, can be used specifically to create holes for rivets and other fasteners.

Sheet metal processing is a set of cold manufacturing processes to turn sheet metal into functional parts for sheet (usually below 6mm), including but not limit to cutting, punching, composite, folding, welding, riveting, jointing together. The character of it is that the same work pieces have the same thickness. Commonly used material are cold-rolled plated(SPCC), hot rolled plated(SHCC), galvanized sheet(SECC, SGCC), brass, beryllium, copper, aluminum, stainless steel etc.

Stainless Steel:SS201,301, 304, 316, 17-4PH, SS303, SSs304, SS316 etc. (Polishing Plating Sandblasting Laser engraving)
Steel: Q235, 20#, 45# 40cr 416Stainless iron etc. (Blackened, Zinc/Nickel/Chrome plating, Carburized Hot treatment)
Aluminum: Aluminum6061 6063 7075 6061-T6 etc. (Natural/Hard anodize, Powder coating, Sandblasting, Plating Brushing, Polishing, Laser engraving)

Highlights of Sheet Metal Tool Stamping Fabrication

Sheet metal fabrication can be a complex process involving many different professionals and generally it involves cutting and bending the metal sheet piece. With bending machine, sheet metal fabrication is simplified, as they help create bends at predetermined angles. Rolling machines are also used in sheet metal fabrication to form steel into round sections.

Another main focus of sheet metal fabrication is welding. After the sheet metal parts are formed, they are assembled and tack welded into place. Various welding techniques can be used in sheet metal fabrication to avoid warping or other visual defects. To finish the sheet metal fabrication process, the metal is usually sand blasted, then primed and painted. The finishing touches are placed according to the customer’s specifications, and each piece is carefully inspected before packaging & delivering.
